Manchester United could sell up to four players in order to fund their transfer move for Borussia Dortmund winger Jadon Sancho, according to reports.
United are very close to landing their long-term transfer target in a deal which is worth up to £77million from Borussia Dortmund.
According to ESPN, ‘realistic offers for squad players will be considered’ by the Red devils’ chiefs.
The report adds that Anthony Martial and Donny van de Beek, Diogo Dalot and Andreas Pereira are at risk of leaving the club this summer. Though, United are yet to make a final decision on Jesse Lingard.
Martial, whose campaign ended prematurely due to a knee injury in March, has struggled to perform on a consistent basis for most of his six years at Old Trafford and managed to score only four goals in the Premier League last season.
Meanwhile, Van de Beek, a £35m arrival from Ajax last summer window, spent most of his debut campaign on the bench, he started only four Premier League matches.
Dalot and Pereira spent the last season on loan at AC Milan and Lazio, respectively, and could be permanently allowed to leave in the forthcoming months.

It is believed that United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer wants to keep the core of his team with the club reportedly stating ‘every player has a realistic valuation’.
The possible exits of first-team players at the club will go towards balancing the books with Sancho’s arrival expected in the coming days.
The England international scored 16 goals and registered 14 assists in another outstanding season in the Bundesliga.
